    "Not a fan of mid-afternoon fights"

    Why's that? Just getting out of bed? Euro fights during the day turn Saturdays into a big fight day that just adds to the mismatch latenight hype shows Showtime puts on.

      Afternoon shows don't get good numbers. It's like 5-6 in the afternoon ******** and mid-afternoon Westside

          Hearn gave an interview the other day saying Froch will fight DeGale if both win, and that Froch wouldn't fight Gonzales if he won.

          If DeGale doesn't win, Hearn mentioned Kessler III as a possibility. Hearn didn't mention it this time but he wanted Golovkin and Chavez for Froch before, I wouldn't be surprised to see Froch matched against the winner. Not sure Team Golovkin are all that keen on the bout, I think much depends on how he does against Chavez. If he KOs Chavez easily then maybe they'll be more confident about the Froch bout.

          With Groves who knows, he has a bit of Haye in him.You never know who he'll sign with, or sign to fight.

            Espinoza is talking out of his ass, he only wants GBP and Haymon fighters fighting on his channel. You'll have to look long and hard to find the last non-GBP/Haymon showtime saturday card.

              Showtime has opened up showbox to Iron mike and Lou.

              So far the big fights have been just Shaw though

                Thats why I said Saturday nights. There have been very little non-GBP/Haymon cards. Espinoza acts like he's all impartial. He is one of the lawyers who created GBP. Why would any of the other big promoters want to do business with him?

                  Kessler III soundsn like a huge possibility..... the site of the fight should be interesting.

                  Groves/Degale II if he wins sounds like a possibility too.

                  Of course these fights could still go off if either guy loses
